A Funny Thing Happened While I Was at the Arena Last Night....

Joe and Craig had the late game last night at 9:30pm, which is their favourite time slot! Our regular goalie wasn't able to make it so a friend, Cody, who played in net during the previous time slot, stepped in. Half way through the third period, Cody's leg came off. (He has had a prosthetic leg since he was a baby.) The players from the opposite team took a knee, which is what you do when there is an "injured" player on the ice. Joe decided that he would just sit on the ice and wait. The repair took a few minutes and Joe laid back, leaning on one elbow, and eventually....there he was.... making a snow angel at centre ice. Typical Joe.

A point to illustrate how full of thoughts my head is lately.....I proceded to tell Craig this morning about the funny thing that happened at the game. He said, "I know Mom, I was there. Thanks for coming to MY game!" He was smiling at the time.

I have a friend who said, "Wherever you are, BE there!" I'm trying really hard to practise that...

That is so very funny Tetcy. Such a "Joe" thing to do eh? Snow angels. Love it! It happens to me too what happened with Craig. I'm so confused about with whom I have shared a story and not shared with...it happens....
